Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton | Disaster Debris Management Plan | 2022 24 3. Debris Operations The National Response Framework establishes a set of core capabilities that must be achieved during disasters to save lives, protect property and the environment, and preserve the social, economic, cultural, and political structure. Debris management operations support several core capabilities, including:  Critical Transportation  Environmental Response/Health and Safety  Infrastructure Systems  Public and Private Services and Resources Depending on the size, scope, and magnitude of the disaster, public entities may be required to conduct debris operations. In cases where the magnitude of the disaster exceeds local capabilities to respond, the Cities may need to contract support. 3.1 Priorities The Cities’ EOPs list the following priorities for disaster response operations:  Life/safety  Incident stabilization  Protection of property and the environment  Community economic recovery Priorities for debris operations are:  Restoration of critical transportation routes  Restoring access to critical facilities  Disposal of hazardous materials 3.2 Debris Operations The concept of operations describes the processes of how to achieve the objectives of the plan. This section is organized chronologically to demonstrate the activities that will take place during each phase of debris operations. Figure 3 below depicts how debris operations fit into the response/recovery continuum after an incident that results in a large amount of debris.
